The cons example is conflating implementation details (return the value passed in to cons) with the semantics (return the left-side of this pair that was instantiated by cons). In the first case it is a category error to think about mutability. In the second mutability makes perfect sense.

Moreover, I suspect it is possible to construct an interface such that to prove statically that you can Liskov Substitute a type into it would be equivalent to deciding Halt: All you need are extensional semantics in your type system.

Given that AI has successfully induced lawyers to use hallucinated cases, I would argue it is already convincing at it, to boot.

To be fair, to some extent that’s up to us. Time to get cleaning, I guess.

This article seems to miss Dawkins' point, which is not to assert that Claude is conscious -- he clearly states that he does not actually know. He seeks to wonder what brought about the evolution of consciousness in the first place.
